I still think it's energy. They couldn't keep up the pressing of the first half, leaving our players with enough time on the ball to dominate possession and even in defense they basically don't track our wide players' runs anymore.

What a miss
Worldschmidt what the feck.
Baumgartl and Nübel not giving away more pens, good on them.
Nmecha 
It was probably harder to miss by such a margin than to score. Quality miss from Nmecha.
They could've doubled the goal in size and it would've still went wide and over.
Waldschmidt!!!!
WALDSCHMIDINHO!!!!
Wow 3-2
Nmecha gets one sent off
A sending off.
Amiri! 4-2
Another brilliant free kick.

Who needs penalties when you can have a free kick?
A match of two halves, the early pen was the turning point with Romania clearly better before and deflated (and sure, also fatigued) afterwards.
4-2 flatters our side a bit in the end, but the set pieces were extremely well taken.
Also Waldschmidt with 7 goals in 4 matches, nailed on for top scorer of the tournament.

If Waldschmidt wasn't a 23 year old Freiburg player I'd be pretty hyped about him.
What's Rauball doing on the pitch?

Fecking forgot about this match! Damn it! Have to remember to watch the final now, hope Waldschmidt kicks on next season or a bigger team that Freiburg sign him.
The other semi is quite entertaining too. 1-1 atm.
Good first half.Spain playing better now.
I liked Dani Olmo,some nice first controls.
Junior very active too

I hope we are at least looking at Fabian Ruiz, think there is a quality midfielder in there
Junior has attacked more this half than fat Luke has his whole career.
France are atrocious. Spain and germany are good, but feck my life, how in bloody hell did we manage to feck this up we had the best team in this idiot torunament by miles
we had the best team in this idiot torunament by miles2-1 for Spain after pen.
Nice goal, game over
Elmo goal
Should have been Italy instead of France in the semis, they were rubbish IMO. England were too dumb to win against them
Fornals is really interesting
Fornals is superb. West Ham got a bargain, he is too good for them
He was really good for Villareal 18 months back but didn't fire last season. Still good pick up by West Ham. Just wonder where they'll play him unless they're going to cash in on Lanzini.
I have to laugh when I read stuff saying Germany or Spain are crap bellow Belgium. Imagine if they worked well. Second final on a row for both teams. The rest is history.
Fornals head and shoulders above everyone on the pitch
Would be quite sweet to defend it against Spain, but they will surely be extra motivated too.
Honestly I think Kuntz is more impressive than their coach but looking at some of the midfielders Spain has its mind boggling for me sometimes when I see people dismissing Germany or Spain based on recent international performances. How can anyone say Belgium is more favourite to win Euro 2020 than them. Certainly not in the next years, anyway.
I've seen quite a bit of him at Villarreal and don't think he's that good. West Ham is probably his level.
The NT are. Quite clearly so. It's not about working well, it's about lucking into a few special talents and turn them into special players. Germany and Spain have nothing like Hazard or De Bruyne right now. Not even close. Belgium came in 3rd at the world cup last year. Germany and Spain were laughed out of the tournament
Let’s see in the next tournaments then. Last chance Belgium has to win a big tournament is 2020, after that not even close.
France are atrocious. Spain and germany are good, but feck my life, how in bloody hell did we manage to feck this up
don´t be weepyWhere is Belgium's Waldschmidt?
